Exomind in Elgin

Stress, anxiety and depression, in addition to other mental health conditions, have been shown to worsen inflammatory dermatological conditions like psoriasis, eczema, acne and urticaria by dysregulation of neurotransmitter pathways, which increases cortisol production and promotes chronic inflammation.

In addition to the physiological connections between mental health and skin health, there are also various lifestyle factors to consider. If you are struggling with any of the following, you may be a candidate for Exomind in Elgin at Dundee Dermatology:

• Depression: Difficulty feeling consistent motivation to engage in self-care
• Anxiety: Difficulty sticking to a regular skincare routine
• OCD: Skin picking, excessive washing or cleaning rituals, difficulty with regularly cleansing the skin and applying products due to fears of contamination
• Binge Eating: Irregular eating patterns and a diet comprising processed or sugary foods (these affect your hormones and gut health, as well as cause nutritional deficiences, which are all tied to unwanted skin conditions)
• Stress: Constant and/or high levels of stress, even with counseling or medication (Stress has been proven to be linked to acne, rosacea, and eczema. Stress increases cortisol, which causes inflammation in the body, and most certainly cause (or worsen) unwanted skin concerns.)

Eventually, patients can reduce dosages, or even stop taking prescriptions, but only with the explicit agreement of each trusted medical professional.
